Answer:

89.0

Explanation:

One way to round a number is to add half the place value you're rounding to, then truncate at the desired place value.

Here, we want to round to a tenth (0.1), so we first add half that value:

88.98 + 0.05 = 89.03

Now, we throw away all digits after the tenths place.

89.0 . . . . our rounded value
